Chapter 74 Getting a Certificate
The dark clouds, drizzle and damp, cool weather make the winter in Jiangbei even colder.
The Phantom drove all the way to the suburbs and arrived at the cemetery.
Qi Yanxue held a huge black umbrella above her head, and the ring on her right ring finger glowed white.
He bent down and placed the bouquet of white lilies in his hand on the tomb called 'Zhao Liangyuan's Tomb'.
There was a photo of a woman on the tombstone. From a distance, her delicate facial features looked bright and elegant, her lips were red without any makeup, and her eyebrows were black without any make-up.
It is not difficult to see that she was an elegant and intellectual woman before she was born.
Qi Yanxue looked quietly at the woman on the tombstone, raindrops hitting the umbrella mercilessly.
The corners of his lips were straight, and there was no emotion in his eyes.
Zhu Wendong stood beside him, his hair blown by the cold wind and sticking to his cheeks. Like him, he stared at the woman on the tombstone.
It turns out that today is the anniversary of his biological mother's death.
She seemed to have never heard the story of her biological mother from Qi Yanxue. She only knew that Zhao Liangyuan died when Qi Yanxue was five years old.
Zhu Wendong glanced at him sideways.
Qi Yanxue's gaze happened to fall on her, and as if he could sense what she was thinking, he asked, "Do you want to hear it?"
Zhu Wendong squinted his eyes due to the wind and asked calmly, "Are you willing to tell me?"
Qi Yanxue calmly tilted her umbrella to block the biting cold wind blowing towards her.
"In fact, she is a very greedy and selfish person. When she was in love with Qi Kancheng, she was attracted by the Qi family's wealth. However, she didn't expect that the Qi family valued matching, and Qi Kancheng was cowardly and incompetent. Naturally, her dream of becoming a rich wife was shattered.
Later, she got together with Qi Kancheng again. Qi Kancheng was actually very cautious. She was unwilling to see the Qi family's assets go to waste, so she gave birth to me in secret. However, she didn't expect that she would be unlucky and died not long after.
During the five years he lived under Zhao Liangyuan, he could not afford to make any mistakes. Everything had to be perfect, and he had to compete with the eldest son of the Qi family in everything.
Darkness, jealousy, unwillingness, all of Zhao Liangyuan's emotions were transferred to Qi Yanxue.
Later, Qi Yanxue even felt that living in the Qi family with no one to look after him and having one meal a day and three meals a day was also a kind of happiness.
Qi Yanxue knew everything about Zhu Wendong, but this was the first time Zhu Wendong heard him talk about Qi Yanxue.
There was an umbrella above his head, but a drop of moisture fell on Zhu Wendong's cheek.
It was like raindrops penetrating the umbrella and falling on her face, or like her tears.
Qi Yanxue chuckled, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said lazily: "I haven't cried yet, why are you crying?"
Zhu Wendong raised his eyes and tried to stop crying, but his tears were like a burst dam, flowing endlessly and getting worse.
She choked out a sob, "My eyes dried up the wind."
Qi Yanxue couldn't hide the tenderness in her eyes, and corrected him: "It must be the wind that dried my eyes."
"Oh." Zhu Wendong lowered his head, looked at the mud pit full of water, and responded in a muffled voice.
Qi Yanxue patiently wiped away her tears bit by bit with his fingertips.
Such a beautiful pair of eyes should not shed tears, even though these tears were shed for him.
For a moment he regretted telling her.
Her tears continued to fall, like continuous raindrops hitting the ground.
Qi Yanxue lifted her chin, and the next second, kissed the corner of her eyes, kissing away her tears that kept falling.
He moved very gently and slowly, "Stop crying, okay?"
Zhu Wendong sobbed a little, and then his tears stopped. "Qi Yanxue, let's get married."
Her almond-shaped eyes were filled with tears, as if they contained a pool of spring water, in which his shadow was clearly reflected.
Qi Yanxue curled her lips: "Okay."
He took Zhao Liangyuan's hand in front of her grave, and the resonant and hot heartbeat came from his palm.
The fog drifted away with the wind, and from then on, only the sun remained in his world.
-
The next morning at 8:55, the Civil Affairs Bureau still had five minutes to go before work.
There was a Phantom waiting at the door.
Zhu Wendong held the household registration book in his hand, sat up straight with his back, and felt an indescribable nervousness in his heart.
She secretly glanced at the person in the main carriage.
Qi Yanxue, on the other hand, was calm and composed, just tapping the steering wheel lightly with his fingertips, making a non-rhythmic sound.
Zhu Wendong teased, "Qi Yanxue, you're so calm, have you been married before?"
"..." Qi Yanxue glanced at her and started to talk nonsense: "I didn't drink Meng Po soup when I was reincarnated, so I still remember marrying you in my previous life."
Oh, so I was married to her in my previous life.
Qi Yanxue really loves her terribly.
Zhu Wendong felt a sweet feeling in his heart, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
At 9:10, the two walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, one of them holding a bright red marriage certificate.
The winter is cold, but the sky is clear and the morning sun shines on my shoulders.
Zhu Wendong was still a little confused: "Is the marriage process so fast?"
She thought it would take at least half an hour.
Qi Yanxue raised her eyebrows slightly: "It's too late for you to regret now."
"I have no regrets."
Zhu Wendong stared at the couple's ID photo on the marriage certificate in a daze.
Against a bright red background, the two of them were both wearing white shirts, their heads tilted slightly in their respective directions, their faces filled with happiness.
At this moment, Zhu Wendong saw a hint of a smile on Qi Yanxue's cold face through the photo.
Zhu Wendong raised his head, his brows curved: "Qi Yanxue, you have a home now."
"Yeah." Qi Yanxue stared at her, a barely perceptible smile flashing in his eyes.
He took her hand and got back into the car.
Zhu Wendong sat in the passenger seat and finally remembered Ms. Wen Lu who had always been keen on getting her married.
"Let me take you to meet my mother."
I don’t know if Ms. Wen Lu will be furious if she gets married first and then brings Qi Yanxue to see her.
Qi Yanxue followed her instructions and said, "Okay."
Zhu Wendong reminded: "Her temper has been unpredictable lately, and she's a bit aggressive. She might scold you or make sarcastic remarks about you, so be prepared."
If you marry someone else's daughter, you will naturally be treated harshly and unkindly.
Qi Yanxue was not worried about these things at all. Even if his mother-in-law asked him to jump into the sea of fire, he would not complain.
-
After meeting Wen Lu at Zhuyuan Hospital, Zhu Wendong realized that all her worries were unnecessary.
Qi Yanxue seemed to be able to deal with elders with ease wherever she went, even her stern-faced professor mother.
Wen Lu glanced at the man beside Zhu Wendong, who was holding a bouquet of flowers and a fruit basket, and asked her, "Isn't this the boy I introduced to you last time? Is it a success?"
Then he saw the rings of the same series on their hands and asked seriously, "How far have you come?"
Zhu Wendong said calmly: "We are married."
“…”
After three seconds of silence, Wen Lu pointed at her and said, "You go out first."
Then he pointed at Qi Yanxue and said in an unquestionable tone: "Sit down."
Zhu Wendong pretended not to hear and sat down beside him. "You have nothing to talk about with him. If you have anything to say, tell me."
Wen Lu suppressed her anger and said, "You'd better get out of here before I get angry."
She was making fun of her body again. Zhu Wendong had no idea what to do with her and turned to look at Qi Yanxue.
Qi Yanxue shook her head at her, indicating that everything was fine.
Zhu Wendong left the ward, leaving them space to talk.
